Test Information Release (TIR) allows students to receive a copy of their exam, their test-day answers, the answer key, and the score conversion data used to calculate scores for that month's test. The ACT makes these available for December, April, and June tests only. TIRs can be ordered when you register for your exam, or for up to six months after the eligible test date. We highly recommend that students request this information if they take an eligible test.

Please note that indicated test dates for the 2022-2023 school year have been confirmed by the ACT, but test dates and score release dates beyond the 2022-2023 school year are projected and subject to change.

How Accurate Are These Future ACT Test Dates?

The 2022-23 ACT test dates, registration deadlines, and score release dates have been confirmed by ACT, Inc. 

The ACT test dates and registration deadlines for future years should be fairly accurate, as there has been little variation from one year to the next. The score release dates are less predictable, but scores should come out within a week of the anticipated score release dates.

Also, note that not everyone receives their multiple-choice scores at the same time.

How to Use These ACT Test Date Projections

These charts make it easy to figure out your best dates to take the ACT. We typically recommend  two ACT sittings. Your first test is a dress rehearsal or a dry run. Your second test is what we call your “Go for the Gold” test. This is the ACT where you can aim to hit your target score.  Sometimes students take third and fourth tests–especially if they’re trying to polish or improve their superscore.

Our students average +7 point improvements on their composite ACT.  If we use superscores, our students are averaging +8 point gains.
